European student movements against “commodification of education” : international norm and counter-norm in new higher education policies
Résumé
The emergence of social movements defining themselves as opponents to the commodification and/or privatisation of education, including first and foremost students but also teachers and other actors, accounts for the changes occurring in the field of HE policy nowadays. In this paper we shall address the new forms of HE delivery from a double perspective, combining the study of policy takers' and policy makers' representations of how higher education should be delivered. We shall depict this binary normative structure and show the potency and dominance of policy makers' norm and the relative weakness of policy takers' one. We shall then try to explain this difference exploring two potential explanatory factors: -First, the hidden diversity of policy takers' representations; -Second, the diffusion mechanisms of the norms.
